Sterlite Power upgrades Jharkhand’s Hatia-Kamdara transmission line

Sterlite Power successfully upgraded capacity on Jharkhand’s 132kv Hatia-Kamdara (61.6 km) transmission line and delivered the project 5 months ahead of the scheduled completion date. The transmission lines were upgraded as the Kamdara substation was choking under excess load, leading to massive outages in nearby rural areas.

Manish Agarwal, CEO, Sterlite Power – Solutions Business, said, “Continuous outages in Karra, Kamdara and Gumla have been a longstanding issue in this area. Finding an effective solution was of paramount importance. This line will help the State of Jharkhand provide reliable access to power in the region and further its roll out of the center’s Saubhagya scheme.”
